Destinations Covered on the 6 Days Ndutu Calving Season Safari in March 2027/2028

Central Serengeti – 2 Days/1 Night: Central Serengeti provides year-round wildlife viewing, including lions, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, cheetahs, hyenas, and many other species. One night here adds a valuable game-viewing section before reaching Ndutu.

Accommodation for the 6 Days Ndutu Calving Season Safari
Accommodation can be selected according to your budget, from budget tents and mid-range tents to luxury tented camps. Rooms are normally shared as double, twin, triple, or family rooms. Accommodation choices can be discussed when booking, and minor changes may be possible depending on availability.
Private Safari Arrangement
This is a private safari organized exclusively for you, rather than a standard group-joining safari. You can travel with your family, partner, friends, or your own organized group and enjoy a flexible private vehicle. Solo travelers can also book privately, but there is no group-joining safari option for the calving season on this package. For travelers specifically seeking a six-day group safari, another route can be arranged covering Tarangire, Serengeti for 2 nights, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara.
Contact us early to discuss your preferred travel style and group size.
March Weather on the 6 Days Ndutu Calving Season Safari
March is a transitional month, and early March is generally a particularly useful period for this safari. The first half of March is often warm and relatively dry, with daytime temperatures around 25°C–29°C (77°F–84°F) and cool mornings near 15°C (59°F). Skies can remain mostly clear. During the second half, rainfall becomes more frequent. Afternoon tropical downpours and thunderstorms can occur, humidity increases, and some tracks across the plains may become muddy. Serengeti and Ngorongoro daytime temperatures are commonly around 24°C–29°C, while nights, especially on the Ngorongoro Crater rim, can feel cool.
Ndutu is generally visited from January through March for this seasonal spectacle. This tour is recommended for travel between mid-December and March, when travelers can follow the migration and calving cycle across the southern Serengeti ecosystem. The 6-Day Ndutu Calving Season Safari in March offers a front-row seat to the Great Wildebeest Migration. In March, herds can still occupy the nutrient-rich short-grass volcanic plains of Ndutu, spanning the southern Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. While the most synchronized births usually occur earlier in the season, March can remain highly active, with calves and predators creating compelling wildlife encounters.
Safari Vehicles for the 6 Days Ndutu Calving Season Safari
For safari game drives, you will travel in a 4x4 Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof, window seats, and six passenger seats. The design provides good visibility while allowing travelers to observe wildlife from different sides of the vehicle. For airport transfers, a Toyota Alphard is usually used and can carry approximately 1–6 people. Transportation from Arusha to the safari parks is included in the package, while airport transfers can be arranged according to your preference.
